Mannich-type reaction of ketene silyl acetals with aldimines proceeded catalytically by means of a phosphoric acid diester, derived from (R)-BINOL, as a chiral Bronsted acid to afford β-amino esters with good diastereoselectivity in favor of the syn isomer and high enantioselectivity (up to 96% ee). The highest enantioselectivity was achieved by the phosphoric acid diester bearing 4-nitrophenyl groups on the 3,3′-positions of BINOL. The N-2-hydroxyphenyl group of aldimine was found to be essential for the present Mannich-type reaction. In combination with these experimental investigations, two possible monocoordination and dicoordination pathways were explored using density functional theory calculations (BHandHLYP/6-31G*). The present reaction proceeds via a dicoordination pathway through the zwitterionic and nine-membered cyclic transition state (TS) consisting of the aldimine and the phosphoric acid. The re-facial selectivity was also well-rationalized theoretically. The nine-membered cyclic structure and aromatic stacking interaction between the 4-nitrophenyl group and N-aryl group would fix the geometry of aldimine on the transition state, and the si-facial attacking TS is less favored by the steric hindrance of the 3,3′-aryl substituents.

A dramatic improvement of our previous methodology based on a Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling to access 3,3′-disubstituted H8-BINOLs using microwave heating is reported herein. These new conditions represent a large gain in term of atom-economy, reaction time, catalyst loading, and excess of reagents employed.
Photocatalyzed E→Z Contra-thermodynamic Isomerization of Vinyl Boronates with Binaphthol

The photocatalytic contra-thermodynamic E→Z isomerization of vinyl boronates by using a binaphthol catalyst is disclosed. The reaction, based on the transient formation of a suitable chromophore with a BINOL derivative as the catalyst, allowed geometrical isomerization in good-to-excellent Z/E ratio and excellent-to-quantitative yields. The mechanism of this E→Z contra-thermodynamic isomerization was studied, and the formation of a transient chromophore species is suggested.
